Pikachu Sleeping Bags for Smartphones: Activate Sleep Mode

It’s no secret that Japan has some very weird stuff. Much of that weird stuff comes out of vending machines. What you see here are tiny sleeping bags that can be found in gachapon toy capsule machines in Japan.

You are supposed to tuck your smartphone inside for a good night’s sleep. I’d think you wouldn’t want to cover your phone inside something that will make it retain heat. After all, smartphones have been known to burst into flames before when left under a pillow all night.

In addition to Pikachu, there is a mystery design that the maker isn’t showing. You have to find it in the vending machine.
